Chapter 156 Waiting for You in Prison

The atmosphere in the court was instantly filled with panic. No one knew what was going to happen, but no one was willing to let Xia Yunxi go.

Every single evil thing Xia Yunxi did made people hate her to the extreme.

Are we going to let this poisonous scorpion woman continue to harm the Night Country?

At this moment, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Ye Linghan, the cold-blooded man who had just been suspected and despised by them.

Su Xing noticed this detail, and besides feeling absurd and ridiculous, he also felt more distressed for Ye Linghan.

He even had an idea that he hoped Ye Linghan would not care about the matter and let Xia Yunxi and Mu Yuanhou rebel, letting these ungrateful people suffer.

But he knew that Ye Linghan would not sit idly by. Even though no one cared about his kindness, he still valued the Ye Kingdom more than his life.

As expected, Ye Linghan spoke up: "I hate being threatened the most. Doesn't the Queen Mother know that?"

Xia Yunxi pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course I know, that's why I do this..."

After saying that, her eyes turned slightly, revealing a hint of provocation.

Ye Linghan was not angry, his handsome face remained cold and ruthless: "Then I will do as the Queen Mother wishes."

"Someone come!" Ye Linghan suddenly frowned and ordered again: "Take down the Queen Mother!"

The guards were always ready and took action as soon as they heard the order, without waiting for Xia Yunxi to stand up.

"How dare you!" Xia Yunxi suddenly shouted angrily, changing her usual gentle attitude: "Who dares to touch me!"

The guards were filled with anger towards this woman. They had no fear at all and grabbed Xia Yunxi's arms and pulled her up.

Seeing this, Xia Yunxi had no choice but to threaten Ye Linghan again: "Regent, are you really going to do this? I'm telling you, if you do this..."

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. There will be no consequences for my doing this." Ye Linghan suddenly interrupted meaningfully.

Xia Yunxi was stunned. Her calm expression finally showed a crack. After a long while, she asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"

As she spoke, she had a bad feeling in her heart, so much so that her face turned pale after she finished speaking.

"Marquis Mu Yuan is already waiting for you in the prison..." Ye Linghan said slowly, "If you want to use Marquis Mu Yuan to threaten me."

Not only Xia Yunxi, but even Su Xing was stunned.

Was Mu Yuanhou caught?

When did it happen?

He didn't even know!

He suddenly remembered that when Ye Linghan was questioned by Li Yuan, he was not in a hurry to produce evidence.

He was so anxious at that time, could it be at that time?

This bastard! I didn’t even tell him in advance, causing him to worry for so long!

I don’t know if Ye Linghan sensed Su Xing’s dissatisfaction, he suddenly raised his eyes and locked his sights on Su Xing.

Although he still looked cold, only Su Xing could see the deep affection hidden in his black eyes.

His heart trembled, and the complaints just now disappeared without a trace.

This shameless guy...

The two people's eyes were closely intertwined, and were about to be connected, but were ruthlessly cut off by Xia Yunxi's exclamation.

"Impossible!" Xia Yunxi was completely panicked, but she still couldn't believe it: "Don't try to lie to me!"

Ye Linghan was forced to withdraw his gaze from Su Xing, feeling unhappy: "I have already told you, Queen Mother, don't think your plan is perfect!"

"What are you waiting for!" Ye Linghan glared at the guards: "Take her away!"

"Impossible! You are digging your own grave!" Xia Yunxi suddenly stared at Li Yuan: "You'd better stop him from doing this, otherwise it will bring disaster to the Ye Kingdom!"

When Li Yuan heard the words "catastrophe", he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He didn't dare to take the risk. What if what Xia Yunxi said was true...

"Prince Regent." Li Yuan asked seriously, "May I ask whether Marquis Mu Yuan has been captured?"

At this point, Li Yuan knew that he had misunderstood Ye Linghan, and it was really too much to keep harping on him now.

But for the sake of Ye Kingdom, he had to do it.

So he knelt on his knees and added: "I know I have wronged the Regent. As long as the Regent can prove that my Ye Kingdom is worry-free, I am willing to die to apologize!"

Although Ye Linghan hated Li Yuan and even wanted to kill him, he did not get angry because he was devoted to the Ye Kingdom.

He looked up and ordered Yingyi, "Go and bring the person here."

Everyone knew who this person was, and immediately fell into nervous anticipation.

The most uneasy person was Xia Yunxi. She was not sure whether Ye Linghan was lying to her.

She was extremely panicked and couldn't keep a straight face.

"Your Majesty." Xia Yunxi rolled her eyes and turned her attention to Ye Lingrui: "Are you just going to watch your biological mother being treated like this?"

Ye Lingrui was already on the verge of collapse, and was frightened to tears by the yell.

Su Xing was so angry that he wanted to rush over to cover Xia Yunxi's mouth, or hold Ye Lingrui in his arms to comfort her.

What kind of mother is this? How can she be so cruel?

Ye Linghan originally wanted to scold Ye Lingrui, but when he saw the fierce look on Su Xing's face, he changed his mind.

He waved to Ye Lingrui: "Come here."

Ye Lingrui was so frightened that he trembled all over. He first looked at Xia Yunxi, then at Ye Linghan. His tear-stained little face was full of struggle.

In the end, he still walked towards Ye Linghan.

Ye Linghan reached out and patted Ye Lingrui's shoulder for the first time. His voice was cold but not scary: "What did I teach you?"

Ye Lingrui's little face froze for a moment, and the next moment he bit his lower lip to stop crying.

After a while, he said in a trembling voice: "I am the emperor, the ruler of a country. I am no longer a child. I cannot cry."

"Yes." Ye Linghan nodded calmly: "Do you want to be a good emperor?"

Ye Lingrui's young face showed deep confusion, but after a moment, he nodded vigorously: "I want to."

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. They had always treated Ye Lingrui as a decoration and never truly regarded him as the emperor.

After all, what can a little kid do?

But such a scene forced them to look at Ye Lingrui with new eyes.

How difficult is it to make such a choice at a time like this?

They couldn't help but feel sorry for Ye Lingrui...

But Ye Linghan was extremely cold-blooded, and at this time he pressed her: "Then do you know what to do?"

Ye Lingrui's tears were about to fall again, but he held them back with great effort.

He took a deep breath like an adult, then slowly turned around and looked at Xia Yunxi: "Mother, you have done too many wrong things, don't be stubborn anymore..."

"What did you say..." Xia Yunxi couldn't believe that her son said this and she stood there in a daze for a moment.

Suddenly, she rushed towards Ye Lingrui like crazy, "You rebellious son! I should have killed you long ago! I shouldn't have left you to be a nuisance, a nuisance!"

Everyone was stunned by Xia Yunxi's amazing change, except Ye Lingrui, who seemed to have seen it many times. Apart from the pain on his face, he was not surprised at all.
